hey,your english is fine. :)

I thought we had the lyrics here before but unfortunately I couldn't find them so i've just listened to the song a couple of times and this is what i've got so far (corrections/additions welcome) :)

Walking Too Fast:

Walking Too Fast Again
Don't Even Touch The Ground
All Friends Say I See You Again
Speak But There's Not A Sound
Where Are You Living Now?
They Might Ask Her
Are You Happy Now?
I Feel My Face Crack Again
Into Most Strangest Smile
Last Week Was Okay I Think
Last Week Was Almost Fine
Sure There Was Not A Thing
But I couldn't Kill With Wine
***************************
As You Always
Close But Not Enough
Now Everything Fades Away
When You Get Close Enough
I Saw You Playing Once
With Your Band On A TV Show
And When I Saw Your Eyes
I Knew You Would Have To Know
The Streets Are On Fire
*****************************
Thats Why I Walk Again
Don't Even Touch The Ground
But You Can't Get Me Out
*****************************
Close But Not Enough
Close But Not Enough.
_____________

I can tell from reading it back that i've mis-heard some of the words and the ******* are lines I can't make out at all.

I had a go a few years ago,and this is what I came up with:-


'Walking too fast again
Don’t even touch the ground
Old friends that I see again
Speak but there’s not a sound

Where are you living now
They might ask her
Are you happy now
I feel my face crack again into that stranger smile
Last week was OK I think
Last week was almost fine
Sure there was not a thing that I couldn’t cure with wine
Still I kept thinking of how you’re always
Close but not enough
How everything fades away
When you get close enough


I saw you playing once
With your band on a TV show
And when I saw your eyes
I knew you would have to know
The streets are all on fire
Alive without desire
That’s why I walk again
Don’t even touch the ground
But you can get me out
You took the (get a life)
Close but not enough
Close but not enough'

The telly's on so I can't play the song at this moment but i think you've basically got it all. It scans and reads fine. :)

I think it's

I feel my face crack again into that stranger's smile

But you couldn't get me out
But you couldn't get alive
(not sure what makes more sense - a life or alive - and try to whisper a v and it sounds like an f)
